Jalpaiguri (WB), Feb 5 (PTI) Union Minister S S Ahluwalia
today met the man behind 'Bike Ambulance' Karimul Haque, who
received Padma Shri this year for his unique way of doing
social service.

The Union Minister of State for Agriculture was handed
over a charter of demands by Haque to improve the health
services in Mal area in the district.

Ahluwalia said he would present it to the Centre and do
his best for its implementation. He also informed Haque that
he had come to the place at the instruction of Prime Minister
Narendra Modi.

Haque has been running a free ambulance service for the
past twenty years for local residents to ensure that no one
ever died due to lack of timely medical service. He had
started the service after he lost his mother due to
unavailability of an ambulance.
